 An hour and some change out of your busy afternoon could save the lives of three fellow Alaskans. To make a donation or to find out more, go to bloodbankofalaska.org, give them a call, 222-5630, to schedule your appointment, or just use the Blood Bank of Alaska app. Blood Bank of Alaska is in critical need of O blood types right now, so if that's your blood type, please, again, consider making a donation today. They're also in need of platelets as well. Did you know platelets expire every five days? You didn't?
